On Monday, I had a second date with a young lady who insulted everything compared to her Prius. She insisted Dad's Focus SFE was way too small.

What would she say of my HX, with its dented fender and cracked paint?

Yet, I rarely have more than one passenger, and both the Focus and Civic rival the mileage of her toy.

I just drove four hours to see my new niece and have waited about that long to actually see her. How long you can drive and how frequently you need to stop is highly variable. We only stopped for lights and we always pack the food and drink we need for the entire trip, but people driving with small children may need to stop frequently.

Is 400 MPH the limit on supercharging? You would need to stop for thirty minutes for every three hours you drove. Free charging is great, but would that be enough? Maybe free wifi and device charging while your car is charging.
